STATEMENT

“Making is my way of connecting. Sometimes that means re-connecting with myself in an effort to reflect and heal and sometimes that means initiating an exchange with another, perhaps even inspiring them to create. I have chosen printmaking specifically as I am drawn to its immediacy and often graphic results. It’s rules and processes keep me present, disciplined and curious.” -Cheryl Humphreys
